yup.

But I have to post it with the original title, correct? Or would it be fine for me to give it a more descriptive one?

This is pretty funny

I don't have one. It's to tinker with my first esp32 board and lora.

It's basically a hobby. If you live somewhere super rural or something it might be interesting to chat with your neighbor or whatever but I think meshtastic is still too much in the alpha stage to be usable really.

It might be useful on a festival or something, where cell networks are overloaded and you and your friends can contact each other via meshtastic. Idk if that would work though.

Yeah I might upgrade to a 18650 cell that I reclaimed if the phone battery is too small.

Yeah I don't have one around ^^

Actually though that's not true, last night I found an old device of me that I could harvest a 18650 battery from.

That's cool, will you post your setup in the meshtastic community?

Honestly just get a heltec v3 from aliexpress, it's only like 12€.

The board works with the cellphone battery, even with just holding the wires to the contacts ^^

Yes exactly that's what I am trying to do. I just found a 3.7v battery in an ancient cellphone of mine, maybe that'll work as well.

Assuming that you're living in the US I think the secret is that disposable vapes aren't as abundant in Germany yet.

Oh that's a good idea, I think supermarkets also collect batteries in general to recycle, maybe there I can find empty vapes.

Not in Berlin. I see them sometimes, but not often enough. I want one now ^^

Which antennas do you have? How far does it reach?

Ok so I got myself a heltec v3 xD

If you want to use multiple internet connections and combine their speed, that's possible. Dunno how though and I guess to work best it would need a server somewhere else like a VPN to manage the packets coming from different ips

Because it's not useful. Two routers still share the same frequencies and thus can't send more data over the same air. A single router can already use multiple frequencies to increase throughput. You don't need two to do that. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIMO

Wow that's lucky

They are, refined fats and sugars are bad. Unrefined both are good.

Let's hope this stretches until the election, otherwise the republicans might be able to find a better candidate

And fat!!

They're the only alternative for now.
